Humankind

We're all parched to belong to one another— In this very race. But the pace Is just how we meet— We’re locking throats together, Rather than open the drought in our face, To the song of our hearts’ beat. We all come alone— You have no crimes to trace. We’re just lying with the street; A lamp is shone— In bottles in our hands, we gather need.

Eloquence in all I read and see poetess! Emotions that you provide priceless! I read them all not but once, but twice this! Your inspiration to me not short of righteous! If your muse was a dragon, I'd say dracarus! Your friend A.S.
